Currently there is confusion over episode 1x10 Villains of the Underworld. I have been trying to get it straightened out at theTVDB.com but no success yet. This episode was originally listed as the series premiere by NatGeo, but now it is not part of this series at all. NatGeo has another series, "Best of: Drain the Oceans", which include this episode as the premiere and other "Drain the ..." documentary movies from years past. People keep editing the TVDB and now have it as 1x02. Please be patient as I'm trying to get it straitened out as quickly as possible. For those that are trying to keep up with this show, the season finale "Malaysia Airlines 370" will air Monday, July 30, 2018 @ 9:00 PM.
I'm a big fan of documentaries, especially those that deal with history. But I do not like the at times lurid style.
